The Almighty Dragon General

Chapter 954
"P-Prove it...! Hold me tight in your arms!."
James took a deep breath of resignation and wrapped his strong arms around Thea.
Thea nestled comfortably into his arms and nuzzled her face into his chest.
The two spent the night in this position as it passed silently.
The next morning...
Thea stirred from her slumber relatively early in the morning.
As soon as she woke up, she could sense a warm hand clasping her breast.Her face turned hot and her senses were
immediately slapped wide awake.She sheepishly tried to move away, but was trapped in James’ tight embrace.
As she found herself unable to move or escape her predicament, she could only stare at the ceiling in a bewildered daze.
Soon after, James also woke up.
Feeling the sensation of something in his hand, he reflexively gave it a firm squeeze.
"Ah..."
He heard a surprised gasp from beside him.
"What are you doing, James? That hurts."
James eyes immediately snapped open when he realized the situation he was in.
In his flustered panic he all but shoved Thea away from him as he turned around and sat up.
Taking in Thea’s flustered expression, his face immediately turned beet red.
"Uhm, Thea...about that...swear I didn’t do it on purpose."
Thea said nothing and did not blame him for his shocked reaction.

The sight of Thea’s naked body in the dim morning light was almost enough to make James lightheaded.
Afraid he could not endure any longer, he quickly turned around and got out of bed.
Then, he picked up a cigarette from the bedside table and lit it.
Meanwhile, Thea got out of bed and began to get dressed.
After she put on her clothes, her phone suddenly rang.
The phone’s screen indicated that the one calling was Lex Callahan.
She answered the phone and asked, "Grandpa, why are you calling so early in the morning? Did something happen?"
Lex babbled anxiously from the other side of the phone.
"Thea, you need to hurry back right now! S-Something bad has happened!"
Thea’s blood ran cold after hearing his voice, and she replied frantically, "What happened?!"
"we're in a tight spot! A reshuffle in power has happened!"
Lex was anxious and was almost incoherent as he tried to explain the situation to Thea.
"I-In any case, just come back as fast as you can.It’s hard to explain over the phone."
Thea hung up the phone.Her eyes were wide with shack.
James put his hand on her shoulder in concern.
"What’s the Matter? What happened?"
Thea shook her head, replying, "I’m not sure either."
"Grandpa called saying that something serious had happened and wanted me to head back as soon as I can."
James deliberated for a moment and internally shrugged.He had nothing better to do at the moment, what was the harm in
visiting the Callahans.
"I'll come with you."

He was worried that his enemy had taken action against the Callahans and wanted to assess the situation himself.
"Alright." Thea nodded.
The two headed out together.
When they walked by the living room, Cynthia was nowhere to be seen.It was only after they had walked out of the villa that they
spotted Cynthia doing a martial art squat in the garden.
She was dressed in a white robe with her long hair tied into a ponytail.
Luther stood beside her, watching quietly.
Seeing James and Thea walking out of the villa, she stopped what she was doing and took the towel that Luther had offered her.
Cynthia wiped the sweat from her forehead, and approached them.
She called out, "James, Thea!"
"Impressive.you’re working hard,"
James praised her diligence.
"Are you going out, James?" asked Cynthia as she tilted her head.
James nodded and said, "Yeah.The Callahans called, saying something serious had happened, and asked Thea to return
home.I’m a little worried and want to see what’s going on for myself."
"Actually, something significant did happen today."
Luther, who was standing beside his master, suddenly joined in the conversation.
"This morning, the news had reported that well-established pharmaceutical groups in Cansington such as Longeivity, and
Century were withdrawing from the pharmaceutical industry.At the same time, Centennial Corporation held a press conference
today saying that they’ve recently acquired all these groups."
"what?!"

The sudden news came as a surprise to James.He followed up with a question.
"When did this happen?"
Luther raised his arm and checked his watch.It was only nine in the morning.
"The news came out around seven in the morning.It’s driven the public into a fuss ever since it first came out."
"Grandpa must mean to discuss this.Let’s head back and get more information,"said Thea.
